[Review] Taco Bell in Eastbourne

Taco Bell is as fast food chain from USA serving Mexican style fast food like Burritos and Quesadilla etc.
There is now a Taco Bell at the former post office location facing the old Curzon cinema.
It is interesting how Eastbourne is getting gentrified with new chains and shops.
Will we see Burger King return or see burger chains like Five Guys or Shake Shack opening?

Anyway, the first time I had Taco Bell was in Croydon which is quite busy at night times.

The Eastbourne branch is quite spacious, wheelchair friendly and the staff at the till was really nice, he even explained the receipt clearly and told me his name if I needed anything else which is rare these days.










Ordered the Double cheesy black beans burrito to compare to the one I had in Croydon.
The menu is divided into a few sections: tacos, burritos, meatless, shareables, cravers and desserts etc.

++++++++++
Double cheesy black beans burrito:
The black bean burrito made my day as the cheese was not too overwhelming while the black beans were firm and not too starchy complimented by the al dente rice.
Overall, the burrito tasted as good as the first one I had in Croydon.



+++++++++
There are hot sauces available at the condiments area as well as mayonnaise.

Chopinlicious at The Chop House (Causeway Bay)

I have always wanted to try this place since it opened but you have to come in a group so that you can try more stuff.



Real beer taps that diners can freely use.


Finally went here for a gathering and here was what we had:
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Virgin pina colada:

Started off with pina colada which had a nice strong pineapple base that was smoothed out by the coconut milk without being too sweet.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Chicken Quesadillas:
Tomatoes, Jack cheddar cheese folded in a bread tortilla , served with sour cream, guacamole and pico de gallo.

I loved the Quesadillas and they tasted good with or without the sauces.
If you begin with them plain, you can taste that yummy cheese and there is a hint of chili con carne too.
After the sauces are added, the Quesadilla comes alive.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Soft shell crab club sandwiches served with tater tots:
These are served until 5pm.


These were great for sharing with a fried soft shell crab that looked like it was still alive.
Each bite had crispy soft shell crab and creamy mayonnaise which was a perfect pairing.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Sweet potato fries:

For munches we had sweet potato fries which had a crisp crunch with a fluffy sweet centre.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Berkshire pork chop basted in Mongolian glaze consisiting of hoisin sauce and black bean chili sauce served with sauteed red cabbage.

The pork was succulent and juicy covered in this Mongolian glaze that had this Chinese twist to it but surprisingly the hoisin sauce and pork tasted really good together.

There were also three other sauces that you could use which were: onion jam, mustard and herbs and beetroot.
My favourite was the mustard and herbs because the mustard was jazzed up with a hint of spiciness infused with herbs.

Sauces:



★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
The Chop house baileys cheesecake:

The cheesecake was thick and creamy with a hint of baileys.
My friend liked this one more than the apple.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Apple strudel in tortilla with vanilla icecream:

As an apple pie lover, I really liked it because the tortilla was thin and there was so much apple filling which was tart and natrual.

Quesadilla with Chicken @ KFC

I have always wanted to try the Quesadilla with chicken but it was only offered during breakfast and tea times.

Luckily they now offer it a la carte.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
They had self-service hot water, which was really good because it will not hold up queues for people who just want some water.
The only disadvantage is that non-paying patrons could pretend they have bought a drink there and take up the tables.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Quesadilla with chicken:
The Quesadilla was really small, it was a half a Quesadilla filled with melted cheese, diced onions, green peppers, spring onions and chicken.
I loved the chicken in cheese sauce and the diced onions were really nice too because they were crispy and there were other things such as green peppers and spring onions that made it taste nice.
I wished this was permanently on the menu.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
